I was directed to a wonderful site today, which allows you to create word clouds. Here is my work in progress. I can see one word that's going to see the red pen come re-write time.
I've done this for mine too and despite the fact that the words make a pretty picture (have printed mine off for the shed wall) it makes it glaringly obvious which words need to be scrapped.
They are good, aren't they. I have spent way too much time playing with it. Still, I did discover that 'back' is the 81st most used word in the English language, hence its appearance.
The official publication date is 6 March 2011 (Charlie's birthday). Full details of where to get the book will be avaible soon. Watch this spacetime continuum.
You can see something of Charlie's own writing here.

Loved it.
